VTEC valve.... most likely he means VTEC solenoid in which case it's the gasket. a 20$ fix go to the dealership.

make sure you get both vtec solenoid gaskets too. there's one inbetween the solenoid and block and there is a upper vtec gasket also

in the future, brake parts cleaner will remove the oil/grime off the engine then you can see where it's leaking from.
